When I read Mr. Bridge and Mrs. Bridge, I was transported back to the sights, sounds, and even smells, of the Kansas City country club world they lived in. My late literary colleague, Gerald Shapiro, and I agreed we shared an indelible mark from our common experience of being KC natives and alumni of Southwest High and University of Kansas. Evan Connell captured part of that lasting essence and shared it brilliantly with the rest of the world. I am forever grateful.

What a great writer. I offer my condolences to the Connell family. God is for us refuge and strength in these times.

Mr. Connell's books, especially Son of the Morning Star, meant a great deal to me when I was a graduate student--and to this day. His passing felt like losing a valued friend. My deepest sympathy to the family.
